You are listening to Weight Loss Made Real and this is episode 44.

I'm your host, Master Weight Loss Coach and author Cookie Rosenblum. Today and Most eating, how to bust through your binges, and how to leave all your overeating habits in the past.

So if you just found me, welcome.

And if you're a regular listener, welcome back.

Today we're going to talk about why thinking

that weight loss should be easy is not working for you

and what you should think instead.

So get comfortable and get ready to be coached.

Let's dive right in.

Do you ever hear yourself saying this is too hard that weight loss and peaceful

leading should be easy? Because if you do you may be doing yourself a big disservice.

So what we're gonna talk about today

is how we define weight loss as hard

and when you make changes why it naturally might be challenging and when you say

this is hard what actually happens inside your brain and how it affects what you do and how you eat.

We're going to talk about how to reframe hard and possibly talk about why hard can be a good thing and I'm going to introduce you to a

work sheet that I use with all of my clients that's in my book so if you have the

book and you want to follow along, go to lesson number 11.

And if you don't have the book yet, I'm going to tell you at the end of this little coaching session how to get it. So here we go. Do you think that getting what you

want, which could be in the area of weight or could be in any area of your life, that it should be easy. When you're trying to reach a goal and it's

difficult, you assume that anything that's hard is too hard and then guess what? You stop trying. You also may think that when

things are hard that it's not fair. You think things should be easier for you. Well, this is the problem. It's your thinking that things should be easier and that it's not fair if they're challenging.
